[android-developers] Re: How to link a library whose name does not begin with lib in Android??

You need to read PREBUILTS.html in the NDK docs.

I have a basic question on Android build system. I created a shared library with name myservice (LOCAL_MODULE := myservice) which created a myservice.so under /system/lib I tried to create an application that uses this myservice and Android.mk file for this application contains LOCAL_SHARED_LIBRARIES := myservice When I built the code, there were link errors (undefined references to ...). After struggling for sometime I renamed the so as libmyservice (LOCAL_MODULE := libmyservice), updated the Android.mk file of application as LOCAL_SHARED_LIBRARIES := libmyservice When I built the code I was able to get the executable!!!. I am confused about the way the build system works. Now the myservice part of the program is not under my control because of which I can not change the name of the .so. How can I modify my Android.mk file to properly reference the myservice??
